Never have I felt so infintisimally small.... Except for this one time when I saw Yao Ming in person...

 

It's kind of like the Universe Viewer from "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" You know, the one that shows you and your importance in relation to the rest of the universe? It's supposed to send you completely mad in less than a second...

Porn is so deep. Seriously, think about it.

 

It's a post modern deconstruction of the human search for truth and meaning. The cumshot, for example, represents the elusive ecstacy of enlightenment in a world of darkness and suffering. Anal represents the initial suffering that some must go through before achieving said enlightenment.

 

But as for the dildos, just ignore them. They are dildos.

And now for some random comments:

 

I have five broken computers.

 

Othello and Macbeth are the only good plays by Shakespear.

 

How does Gordon Freeman know how to shoot all of those guns when he is a physicist?

 

Ah! Where did my shiny bead go?

 

All of these were spoken by the same person (not me) in a five minute period while waiting to get into a movie.

8O Oooh-kay so much for the PG-13 rating on this board.

 

That was PG-13. Have you watched basic cable recently? You watch shows that are worse than that in primetime.

I can turn on basic cable where i live, and hear swear words round the clock. People getting shot, and killed. Brutal violence. All of which are worse (IMO) then the mentioning of certain sexual acts.

 

Besides, we all seem to be relatively mature here. I am mentioning a few random sexual acts is something we are all adult enough to handle.

... "we" being those who show up regularaly and not, say, CarrieoftheWest who is, in fact, all of eleven, I believe. The site's open to the public, BS. Public means anybody and everybody (Unfortunately, in some cases)

:) Like I said not for all :wink:

The cars sound like that for a host of reasons - the main being that they produce 400+ HP, some a lot more. A lot of it comes from over fueling the engine to keep it reving higher and allowing you to get optimum power without having to go through your rev range. It works a treat for turbocharged cars, you bypass a lot of the turbo lag you get from the larger turbos by keeping the car running lean, and with an idle so high that the turbo is constantly spooling.

Also, a side note on Group B rallying. It's banned now, mainly because of too many deaths - drivers and most of all those annoying people standing at the side of the track, and especially those who ran onto the track. Happened a lot. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_B
